Codebook and documentation of the panel study 'Labour Market and Social Security' (PASS)

Abstract

"This Datenreport provides an overview of the fourth survey wave, for which 11,768 individuals were interviewed in 7,848 households between February 2010 and September 2010. This included 10,049 individuals and 6,945 households that had already been interviewed repeatedly in the context of PASS. The present wave-specific Datenreport of wave 4 documents the wave-related aspects of the study. Following a short overview of the innovations and characteristics of the fourth wave (Chapter 1.3.), the Datenreport reports the key figures on samples and response rates of the fourth wave (Chapter 2). Moreover, the steps of data preparation and the decisions made as part of this process are described (Chapter 5) and an overview of the variables generated is presented (Chapter 4). Additionally, the weighing procedure is presented (Chapter 6). The separate table reports list the frequencies of all variables included in the scientific use file that were recorded in wave 4, divided into their respective datasets (Volume II to Volume IV)."
